Compact MATX Case

Expect to update with more pictures shortly.

Originally wanted to fit this fully on a 256x256 print bed, all but one part fits, split one part that didn't in two for those that need it.

Designed case as none was available for 4 PCI-E slot MATX boards that fit 256x256 build plate.

Case can be fully assembled without fasteners, recommend to use glue to attach rear panel to top and/or bottom, or drill holes and secure with fasteners.  Feet, if used for bottom, must be glued in or attached with alternative methods.  Some parts may need to be trimmed depending on print calibration.  To trim I use a box cutter to cut channels down slightly for parts to fit flush together.

Designed to use:

• MATX motherboard (up to 4 PCI-E slots)
• Low Profile CPU Fan
  • Very little space between SFX PSU and CPU cooler (see pictures)
    • About ⅓ diameter of a US Dime, see pictures.
  • example: Noctua NH-L9a-AM4 Low Profile CPU Cooler
• StarTech.com Bezel Wires (not affiliate link)
  • Two switches (power, reset)
  • Three led's (power, standby, hdd activity)
  • Ebay search link
• SFX Power Supply
• PSU bolts (4 suggested)
  • #6-32 x ¾ in round combo head
